The toxic skin tubercle gland secretion of the stonefish, Synanceia trachynis, contains a smooth muscle antispasmogen that is readily distinguished from papaverine, verapamil and both alpha and beta adrenoreceptor agonists. At 15 micrograms/ml, the toxin containing fraction markedly inhibited the phasic response and had a lesser inhibitory effect on the tonic response of acetylcholine-and KCl-induced contractures of guinea-pig ileum, while at 50 micrograms/ml, the toxin markedly inhibited both… CONTINUE READING
